Citizens and companies in every US state pay taxes to the government, but the resources and services that come from this collective funding aren’t distributed equally. Depending on a state’s level of need, population, and other factors, some states receive far more federal funding than others.

See how much your state gains or loses in taxes. A positive number indicates more money going back to the state than is paid out, while a negative number means the state is contributing more than it gets back.
